You gatta love this story. Perfect scam if they quit in time.

When National Parts issued a purchase order through the same online bidding system, Chip Factory changed the price to a much higher amount, according to documents.

Even though Best Buy and National Parts officials sometimes questioned price discrepancies, those concerns were smoothed over by a Best Buy employee who received money and gifts from the Coles, officials alleged.
Like I said a perfect scam if they quit in time.

That's the problem with the vast majority of illegal endeavours, GF. They just don't know when to quit. Greed - the real key behind progress (and perhaps evolution). Ten trillion sold and growing.
